Leaving is Not The Easiest Part

A good friend of mine said "isn't it ironic that once you find you are leaving the mountains you become passionate about them." Its all too true, but its even more true for your friends and family. What is it you live for? I live for relations with people, my friends, my family, my girlfriends, when I'm lucky enough to have them. Perhaps its the fact that I've had some of the best hugs of my life this last week from both guys and gals, but I've become overly sentimental of every moment I have left in Colorado.

Top 5 things I'll miss living in Colorado:

5. Secluded Wilderness

4. Dry and Arid Air

3. "The Local Knowledge"

2. Colorado Micro Brews

1. My Friends' Mothers

And now a picture for you viewing enjoyment:

My Year in Climbing

I recently downloaded Picaso, and was messing around with some of my pictures. I created this collage of all my climbing since November 2006 when I returned from my 1 year sabbatical thrust upon me as a result of one hairline fracture in my Talus bone.

Cyclic Numbers

142857 is a cyclic number — you can find its multiples by just rotating its digits:

• 142857 x 1 = 142857
• 142857 x 2 = 285714
• 142857 x 3 = 428571
• 142857 x 4 = 571428
• 142857 x 5 = 714285
• 142857 x 6 = 857142

CooL!

My Connective Tissue Hurts

I climb to the heavens
I jump to the seas,
Sometimes when I climb
I cut the cheese.

I climb till it hurts
Flirt with danger in spurts,
My Friends give me Pert
Cause my hairs smells like dirt.
